The 2017 Volkswagen Passat Alltrack Wolfsburg Edition is now on sale in Australia, bringing some extra equipment and style to the German brand’s high-riding family wagon.

The newly added Wolfsburg Edition version of the Volkswagen Passat Alltrack sees the addition of new 19-inch Albertville alloy wheels (an inch larger than the standard rims), while the newly added LED headlights are said to offer a “unique light signature”.

Further visual separation is gifted by Wolfsburg badges on the outside of the car.

Other new kit fitted to the Wolfy includes black Nappa leather seat upholstery, as well as the brand’s 12.3-inch Active Info Display dashboard. It’s a standard fit item, and there’s also an automatic boot-lid.

The Passat Alltrack Wolfsburg Edition remains powered by the same 2.0-litre turbo diesel four-cylinder engine producing 140kW of power and 400Nm of torque, and it has a six-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive. Fuel use is claimed at 5.4 litres per 100 kilometres.

The 2017 Volkswagen Passat Alltrack Wolfsburg Edition is priced at $54,990 plus on-road costs, but VW Australia is selling it at $54,990 drive-away until 31 March 2017.

The standard Passat Alltrack model remains, and for 2017 it’s priced at $50,790 (but VW is doing it for $49,990 drive-away over the same promotional period).
